Triple Chocolate Hazelnut Cookies are a must make for your Christmas cookie trays, and to satisfy your chocolate cravings. They are super soft, chewy and chocolaty.

I took my favorite Double Chocolate Chip Cookie recipe, added hazelnuts, and drizzled them generously with melted white chocolate. Dark chocolate cocoa powder gives an extra boost of chocolaty goodness to these favorite cookies.

When I was in high school I worked at a catering business. The owner would buy cookie dough from Costco, and we would drizzle white chocolate over the top of the double chocolate chip cookies. It always gave them more of a bakery look that really dressed the cookies up, and was the inspiration for these cookies.

Triple Chocolate Hazelnut Cookies are a great treat to leave for Santa Clause with a large glass of milk or a fun sweet snack for New Years Eve. No matter why you make them your sure to love them.

Cream together:

• 1 cup Room Temperature Butter
• 1 1/4 cup Brown Sugar
• 3/4 cup Granulated Sugar

Beat in:

• 2 whole Eggs
• 1 tablespoon Pure Vanilla Extract

Until well combined.

Stir in:

• 3/4 cup Dark Unsweetened Cocoa Powder or Natural Cocoa Powder
• 1 teaspoon Sea Salt
• 1 teaspoon Baking Soda

Until well combined. Scrape sides of bowl as needed.

Stir in 2 cups All-Purpose or Whole Wheat Pastry Flour just until combined.

Add 2 cups Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips and 1 cup Chopped Hazelnuts. Stir until combined.

Scoop cookies by standard sized cookie scoop or heaping tablespoon onto a parchment or Silpat lined cookie sheet. 

If desired press a few pieces of chocolate chips and chopped hazelnuts into the cookie balls. 

Bake cookies in a 375 degree oven for 8-10 until set around edges but centers still slightly soft. 

Allow cookies to cool for 4 minutes before removing to a cooling rack.

In a small saucepan stir together 1 cup White Chocolate Chips, and 2 tablespoons Coconut Oil or Butter over low heat.

Until white chocolate is melted.

Use a spoon to drizzle melted white chocolate all over Chocolate Hazelnut Cookies and allow to rest until chocolate has hardened. It can take up to 2 hours. 

For fast curing refrigerate Triple Chocolate Hazelnut Cookies for 20 minutes or until chocolate is set.
